This works fine, and I've made a Greasemonky script and Firefox plugin that do just that, and putting it manually on a site works fine too. However I'm trying to make a bookmarklet: javascript:(function(){var%20ormeo=document.createEleme...

I'm at a stage in which I did not learn internet scripting languages yet, but I do understand JavaScript enough to edit scripts I find on the web to suit my needs. Lately, I've been searching for an RSS to HTML converter, and was surprised to find out that it usually involves PHP. I don't see a reason for JavaScript to not be adequate f...

I'll soon be coding some JavaScript in Adobe Acrobat Pro, but I hate coding in notepad because it doesn't show me my mistakes. I know the JavaScript implemented by Acrobat Pro is a little different from web JavaScript.

I have various links which all have unique id's that are "pseudo-anchors." I want them to affect the url hash value and the click magic is all handled by some mootools code. However, when I click on the links they scroll to themselves (or to the top in one case). I don't want to scroll anywhere, but also need my javascript to execute and...
